Grammy-winning actor and film producer Will Smith has pulled the production of his new movie “Emancipation” from Georgia over recent election reforms in the state.

“At this moment in time, the Nation is coming to terms with its history and is attempting to eliminate vestiges of institutional racism to achieve true racial justice,” Smith said in a joint statement with the movie’s co-director, Antoine Fuqua.
